CHRISTIAN HAD TO MAKE a call before he responded to her. He wanted to make sure it was who he thought it was before explaining everything.
"So, you're telling me that he got out but you didn't even bother to tell me? You know I just got my daughter back and you still didn't fucking tell me? What's wrong with you?" He shouted angrily at his coworker on the phone.
"Look, mate, I just realised when you called me, no one was alerted. He got a reduction on his sentence for good behavior. I'm really sorry mate, I know how much trouble he gave you in the past." Said his coworker.
Christian was very angry now and just hang up the phone. He knew it wasn't his fault, but at the moment, he did not care one bit. He was far too worried for his daughter.
He put his phone away and faced her. "Ry, did your mom tell you the reason why she took you away?" He asked. Christian knew it was insensitive to phrase it like that but Rya did not seem to care. She was even more blunt than him.
"Not in details. All she said was that a man was after you, and wanted to hurt us to get to you. Why?" Rya was beginning to worry now. First, they get followed by a Hulk- like man, then, her father starts talking on the phone with someone from the agency, which he never does in front of her. And to top it all off, he was asking her if she knew why her mom took her away from him. Rya could smell danger, though she knew he didn't live a life full of danger, they were not in some kind of movie. He simply went abroad to gather information to protect the U.K. while undercover.
"Look, I never brought it up because it was in the past and we managed to catch the asshole. But now he got out and I have to protect you because surely, he's heard of you by now and is going to go after you to get to me. " Christian began ranting. Rya was even more confused than before and it must have shown on her face because he continued along with his story. "Seventeen years ago, I was tasked to gather intelligence on a gang that was ravaging the streets of london at the time. They were quite powerful and had ties almost everywhere so they sent me, as an undercover agent. My mission was to infiltrate the gang and make it look like I was a member. I had managed to gather a lot of incriminating information on them and sent them to my superiors. They had managed to catch approximately all the members except their leader, Rick Alfonso. He made it his mission to target me to get revenge for putting his members in prison. So when he learned that your mom was pregnant with you, he infiltrated our house and kidnapped her. I did everything I could to get her back, and I eventually managed to. He got sentenced to twenty years in prison for kidnapping and torture because they could not tie him to any of the crimes we suspected he did. Five months later you finally came into this world. I got to spend all the time I could with you for six whole months before your mom took you away. I guess she was scared for your safety because his man were not all behind bars and they were known for seeking vengence at any cost. The person I was talking to on the phone was my coworker I had asked him to keep tabs on him for me. Apparently he just got out for good behaviour and I think he's going to want to finish what he started. That means possibly killing me." Christian finally finished.
Rya was shocked. Never had she imagined that her mother went through that. And now, that may happen to her. She wasn't all that afraid because she knew that the chances of her being kidnapped were slim as long as she stayed with her dad or with Noah when at school. And, at the very least she could very well take care and defend herself since boxing was one of her favorite sports.
"Wow. That's crazy." She didn't know what to say. She certainly couldn't express her little fear to her dad as she hated being vulnerable in front of people. So this was the best reply she could come up with.
"Yes, you could say so." He replied while shaking his head. It astonished him that she was not panicking or running the other way around right now. Another moment where he felt his chest well up with pride watching his strong daughter in front of him. She had grown up into just a courageous, smart and insanely beautiful girl. He just wished he could have been able to see her through the years.
"Come on. Let's go back home." Christian said, getting up.
"What about the food?" She asked. It hadn't even come yet, she could not fanthom how they would be leaving without stomaching the mouth watering dishes they had ordered.
"Oh. Right. I completely forgot, Sorry" He said chuckling a bit.

A U T H O R ' S N O T E :
So What do you think? I kind of struggled coming up with the whole story from Chris's past because I wanted it to be as realistic as possible. As much as it could be at least. And I know that I said that he was british but I never use british slang because I know shite about their slang. So excuse me about that🥴
